About using tracking codes


Tracking codes are alphanumeric codes that identify categories of users on a WebEx
service site, allowing you to analyze usage by various groups within an
organization—for example, Department and Division. You can require users to
provide tracking codes when signing up for an account, as part of their user profiles,
or when scheduling a meeting or training session.
The tracking codes that users provide appear as part of the information about a user
in usage reports, which you can obtain for your WebEx service site. You can then
use the data in these reports for purposes such as cost accounting or other internal
billing processes.
When specifying a tracking code, you can require that users do one or more of the
following:
■ Provide a code value in their user profiles.
■ Provide a code value when scheduling a meeting or training session.
■ Select a code value in a list of values that you specify. You can create a list of code
values by either typing them in a list or importing them from a
comma-separated value (CSV) file that you create.
Alternatively, you can specify code values in a user’s profile when adding or editing
a user account in Site Administration. Thus, users need not type or select codes
values for their profiles or when scheduling a meeting or training session.

Specifying tracking codes


You can specify tracking codes that let you track usage of your WebEx service site.
For example, you can specify the tracking codes Project, Division, and Department,
and then require users to provide code values when scheduling a meeting or
training session. Optionally, you can specify one or more code values that users can
select for each label.

42
Chapter 2: Managing Users

The tracking code labels, or group names, that you specify can appear on any of the
following pages on your WebEx service site:
■ My Profile page: A page that contains personal information about each user who
has an account. A user can maintain personal information on this page.
■ Schedule a Meeting Wizard: On Meeting Center and Sales Center sites, the pages
on which users provide information when scheduling a meeting.
■ Schedule Training Session page: On Training Center sites, the page on which
users provide information when scheduling a training session.
■ Schedule an Event page: On Event Center sites, the page on which users provide
information when scheduling an event.
To specify tracking codes:
1 On the navigation bar, under Manage Site, click Tracking Codes.

The Tracking Codes page appears.

code.
3 In the Host Profile drop-down list, specify whether the tracking code is required
for users' user profiles.
4 In the Schedule Meeting drop-down list, specify whether users must specify a
tracking code value when scheduling a meeting.
5 In the Input Mode drop-down list, select an option for how users can provide a
code value.
6 Optional. If you require users to select a tracking code from a list of values that
you specify, instead of typing a value, do one of the following:
■ To create a list of code values by typing them, click Add/Edit to open the
Tracking Codes List page. Then specify code values. The Tracking Code List
page appears.
■ To create a list of code values by importing them from a CSV
(comma-separated values) file that contains the code values, click Batch Add.
7 Optional. Specify additional tracking codes.

8 In the Schedule/start page to list, specify on which services you want the page to
appear.
9 Once you have finished specifying the tracking codes, click Update to save your
changes.

Importing accounts for Cisco Unified MeetingPlace


users
Your Cisco Unified MeetingPlace implementation may include a directory service
integration. In this case, MeetingPlace users will be able to log in to your WebEx site
with a single sign-on, beginning on a MeetingPlace site. No importing of user
accounts is necessary for a directory service integration.

Important If directory service integration is enabled for your site, do not create or
update user accounts. Please follow all instructions that were provided for your
implementation.

For sites without the directory service integration enabled, you can import
MeetingPlace user accounts into your Cisco Unified MeetingPlace site. You can
import user accounts once you have exported the MeetingPlace accounts into a text
(.txt) or comma-separated values (.csv) file. To import user accounts, see Adding
multiple user accounts on page 47.

Adding multiple user accounts


You can use a batch process to add multiple user accounts. First use a spreadsheet
program, such as Microsoft Excel, to create a CSV (comma-separated values) file
that contains user account information and then use this procedure to import the
information into WebEx. For Cisco Unified MeetingPlace users, you can also
import a MeetingPlace-exported text (.txt) file.

Note For details about creating a CSV file, see CSV File Format for User Accounts on
page 196.

To add multiple user accounts:


1 On the navigation bar, under Manage Users, click Import/Export Users.

2 Select the Delimiter as Tab or Comma for the format of the file you are
importing.
3 Click Import. The Batch Import Users page appears.

47
Chapter 3: Importing and Exporting Users

4 Click Browse, select the CSV (.csv) file that contains user account information,
then click Open.
5 Click Import.

6 Click OK.

7 You will receive an email notification when the request is finished. Click on the
link in the notification email and carefully review and verify the information.

Note

■ If you specify any user accounts incorrectly, Site Administration cannot create
those accounts. Site Administration generates a list of accounts that it was
unable to create and cause for each error.
■ If Site Administration reports errors, download the file to your computer,
correct the errors, delete the last column, labeled Comments, and then upload
the file again.

After you upload the CSV file, you can change the information by editing the
accounts in Site Administration. See About editing user accounts on page 35.

Editing multiple user accounts


You can import a CSV (comma separated values) with new account information to
edit multiple user accounts simultaneously. During this process you will export the
user account information to a CSV file, then use a spreadsheet program such as
Microsoft Excel to edit the information, then import the information back into
WebEx.

Note For details about creating a CSV file, see CSV File Format for User Accounts on
page 196.

48
Chapter 3: Importing and Exporting Users

Batch jobs are placed in a queue and are run approximately every 5 minutes. The
page is displayed after the export or import command has been selected and a file
chosen. To refresh the status page, click the Import/Export Users link on the
navigation bar. When an export job finishes, the status page displays a link to
download the exported file. An e-mail is also sent to the person who requested the
batch job when the job finishes. The message has several important pieces of
information:
■ A message that your export or import request is complete.
■ A link to see the full results.
■ A link to download the actual imported or exported CVS file, if it was successful.
■ A link to view the error log, if any, for the job.
3 From the Import/Export Users page or from the email notification, select the
link to download the exported CSV file and click Save.
4 Select a location to save the file, and then click Save.

5 Use a spreadsheet program, such as Microsoft Excel, to edit the file.

6 From the Site Administration Import/Export Users page, click Import.

7 Enter the name of the CSV file or click Browse to find the file.

8 Click Import.

9 Carefully review the information in the table to verify that you specified it
correctly, then click OK.

error. You can download a file containing these records to your computer for
reference or to correct the errors directly in that file.
■ If you correct the errors directly in the file that Site Administration creates for
you, delete the last column, labeled “Comments”, before you upload the file
again.

correct the errors directly in that file.
■ If you correct the errors directly in the file that Site Administration creates for
you, ensure that you delete the last column, labeled Comments, before you
upload the file to create the remaining code values.
■ If, after uploading a CSV file, you want to change information that you specified
for one or more code values, you can edit values individually on the Tracking
Codes List page. Or, you can contact your WebEx account manager for
assistance.

About managing Event Center scheduling templates


A scheduling template defines many of the settings for a scheduled event. If hosts
often use the same settings for their events, you can save those settings in a template.
When scheduling events, a host can select the template to avoid having to set many
of the same options for each event.
There are two types of scheduling templates:
■ Standard scheduling templates: Available for all hosts. Your WebEx service
includes a set of standard templates. You can also make hosts’ personal
templates available as standard templates.
■ Personal scheduling templates: A template that a host sets up and that is
available only for that host. A host can create a personal template from within
the event scheduler, by using the Save As Template option. When saving a
template, the host also has the option to save the template as a standard
template, by selecting Save As Standard Template. The template then appears in
the list of standard templates in Site Administration.
In the list of standard templates for your Event Center service, you can:
■ Show or hide any standard template, including those templates that hosts create
and save as a standard template.
■ Make any standard template the default template for Event Center
■ Delete a standard template from your WebEx site

Showing or hiding Event Center scheduling templates

About Using Meeting Center on iPhone


You can use Meeting Center on Apple iPhone as you would use it on a computer to
view, join, and end meetings. Using Meeting Center on iPhone does not require a
Web browser. Instead, a WebEx Meeting client (or application) is installed on
iPhone to provide most Meeting Center functionalities.
The following table provides a list of supported and unsupported Meeting Center
functionalities on iPhone.
Supported Functionalities Unsupported Functionalities

Starting scheduled meetings. Scheduling a meeting directly from


iPhone.
Joining meetings that are in progress. Viewing videos.
Ending scheduled meetings. Starting ad hoc meetings.

following information:
■ Instructions to join the meeting using iPhone
■ A link to join the meeting using iPhone.
■ A link to download the iPhone WebEx application if the invitee has not installed
it yet.
Additionally, you need to ensure that the following prerequisites are met before you
try to enable the iPhone integration with Meeting Center.
■ The Super admin has created the iPhone Client and Mobile Web Access session
types.

About managing Meeting Center scheduling templates


For Meeting Center sites only
A scheduling template defines many of the settings for a scheduled meeting. If hosts
often use the same settings for their meetings, you can save those settings in a
template. When scheduling meetings, a host can select the template to avoid having
to set many of the same options for each meeting.
There are two types of scheduling templates:
■ Standard scheduling templates: Available for all hosts. Your WebEx service
includes a set of standard templates. You can also make hosts’ personal
templates available as standard templates.
■ Personal scheduling templates: A template that a host sets up and that is
available only for that host. A host can create a personal template from within
the meeting scheduler, by using the Save As Template option. When saving a
template, the host also has the option to save the template as a standard
template, by selecting Save As Standard Template. The template then appears in
the list of standard templates in Site Administration.
In the list of standard templates for your Meeting Center service, you can:
■ Show or hide any standard template, including those templates that hosts create
and save as a standard template.
■ Make any standard template the default template for Meeting Center
■ Delete a standard template from your WebEx site

Enabling digital certificates (PKI)


Use digital certificates to encrypt WebEx session data and prevent unauthorized
access as data travels across the Internet. As the site administrator, you manage the
root certificate that is used to validate all certificates used within your organization.
You can:
■ Import up to 10 root certificates, delete them, or just view information about the
certificate, see “Managing the root certificate” on page 118 for details.
■ Assign certificates to a specific type of WebEx session, see “Assigning a certificate
to a session type” on page 118 for details.

Note Attendees who try to access WebEx sessions without a valid digital certificate
will be asked to check the meeting email invitation for more information about
obtaining a valid certificate. You can edit the message that appears in the email
message (see “Customizing email templates” on page 108 for details).

About session types


Session types define the features and options that are available for scheduled
sessions. If your WebEx service has the custom session types option enabled, you
can create up to four custom session types for each primary session type that your
service includes.

Note The primary session types for your WebEx service are listed on the Home
page in Site Administration, under Session Types.

For example, if your WebEx service includes the Meeting Center Pro session type,
you can create four additional “Pro” session types that each provide a different set
of features and options.
After you create a custom session type, you can assign it to specific users, to manage
security, bandwidth usage, or similar administrative activities. For example, you
can use session types to prevent specific users from using the “remote control”
option during desktop sharing, so others outside your organization cannot access
files on employees’ computers or on network servers. Simply create a custom
session type that does not include the remote control option, and then assign only
this session type to specific users by editing their accounts.
Depending upon your WebEx pricing model, a certain number of named host
accounts may be associated with each session type. This controls how many people
in your organization can host meetings.
You can manage session types by:
■ Creating custom session types (see “Creating custom session types” on page 122)
■ Changing custom session type features and options (see “Changing a custom
session type” on page 127)
■ Activating or deactivating custom session types (see “Activating or deactivating
a custom session type” on page 127)

Creating custom session types


You can create up to four custom session types for each primary session type that
your WebEx service includes. You must have custom session types options enabled
in order to see Session Types options in the navigation bar. For more information
or if you do not see Session Types in the navigation bar, contact your WebEx
representative.

Note Once you create a new session type, you cannot delete it. However, you can
modify it or deactivate it.

Creating a Cisco Unified Videoconferencing (CUVC)


Session Type
The Cisco Unified Videoconferencing (CUVC) session type enables you to
integrate WebEx services with videoconferencing sessions on the CUVC system. A
meeting ID helps you accomplish this integration.
Before you can integrate WebEx services with the CUVC system, ensure that:
■ The Super Admin has enabled the CUVC option for the entire Site.
■ The Site Admin has enabled the CUVC option in the Site Admin settings page.

Note If the Site Admin enables the CUVC option, the CUVC Desktop will replace
WebEx video during a session.

The Site Admin can configure the CUVC integration by using either a Dynamic
CUVC meeting ID or a custom CUVC meeting ID.
To create a CUVC session type:
1 On the navigation bar, under Session Types, click Session Type List.

2 Under the Session Code where you want to create a new CUVC session type,
click Add new custom session type for <session type>.

Setting up computers for Remote Access


You can set up a computer for remote access in any of the groups you created. If you
do not know the group for which you want to assign the computer, you can set it
up in the Root group first and assign it to another group later.
To set up a computer for remote access, you or the customer must first install the
Remote Access Agent on the computer—that is, the remote computer. To start a
Remote Access session, a support representative logs in to your WebEx service Web
site on a computer, called the local computer, and establishes a connection with the
remote computer.
Before installing the Remote Access Agent, ensure that both the remote and local
computers meet the minimum system requirements.
There are three ways of installing the Remote Access Agent:
■ Remote Access Setup Wizard: Follow the instructions in the wizard to complete
installation. For details, see “Sending the Remote Access installer link to users”
on page 133.
■ Manual installer: Run the Remote Access manual installer, and then follow the
instructions in the Remote Access Setup Wizard to complete installation. For
details, see “Downloading the Remote Access Agent installer” on page 135.

Color Specifies the color setting for a shared application or desktop
that appears on a support representative's or customer's
screen. For example, if a customer is sharing an application,
this option determines the color setting that affects the
appearance of the shared application in the viewer or the
support representative's screen.
256 colors: Specifies that a shared application or desktop
appears in 256 colors in the viewer or the support
representative's or customer's screen. This option requires less
bandwidth for sharing applications or desktops than the High
color option does. Thus, this option is useful if a customer is
using a dial-up connection to attend a support session.

Managing WebACD queues


Use this procedure to set up or change WebACD (Web-based Automatic Call
Distribution) queues for routing customer requests to agents. The tabs group the
tasks into five areas. Setting up a queue involves:
■ Configuring the queue (Configuration tab)–setting the hours of operation,
determining how WebACD routes the requests, and other details. See Options on
the Configuration tab on page 156.
■ Assigning agents to the queue (User tab)–From a list of all available agents,
selecting agents who answer customer requests. See Options on the Users tab on
page 158.
■ Designing the entry form (Entry Form tab)–Adding and arranging the fields
that appear on the form customers fill out to request assistance. See Options on
the Entry Form tab on page 159.
■ Designing the entry link (Entry Link tab)–Choosing the button style and
wording that appear on the button customers click to contact. WebACD
provides the html code, which you can place on your Web page. This link
connects to the entry form.
■ Constructing rules (Rules tab)–Setting up the rules for routing requests to
agents. You create the rules based on the information you request on the entry
form.
You can add more users and rules as you need them. You can start with a simple
structure and add to it as your needs change.
If you’ve selected a queue to update, you can make the changes to information on
any tab.

The fields you select or add on the Entry Form tab appear on the forms customers
submit when they request assistance. WebACD provides these fields on the Entry
Form tab:
■ first name
■ last name
■ email address
■ phone number
WebACD requires that the customer provide his or her first name, last name, and
email address. You may already have these (and other details) about a customer
stored in a profile. If you can supply this information about the customer in the
html you send to the server, you do not have to display these fields and require the
customer to fill them in. You must replace provide the correct parameters to
WebACD.

WebACD requires some basic information about the


customer. You do not have to request these details directly
from the customer, if you have customer information stored
(for example, in a profile) and have a mechanism for providing
these details to WebACD.

You also use these field names later, if you set up rules for routing requests. For
details about setting up rules, see Setting up rules for routing requests on page 164.
Rules allow you to route requests to specific agents, based on the information the
customer provides on this form. Later, create reports to track problems reported by
customers and the response by members of your support organization.

■ All exports (report, user, contacts) are exported in Unicode tab-delimited text
(UTF-16LE) format. All imports support CSV (for English data only) and
Unicode tab delimited text (for non-English data and mixed language data.)
■ A CSV file must include column headings at the top of the file. When creating a
CSV file using a spreadsheet program, such as Microsoft Excel, ensure that the
column headings are in the first row of a spreadsheet. Column headings must
appear exactly as specified under Account-Information Fields below.
■ Some user account information is required, as specified under
Account-Information Fields below. Thus, you must include all column
headings for required fields. You need not include column headings for optional
fields for which you do not provide user account information.
■ To ensure that your CSV file contains all required column headings, in their
proper format, WebEx strongly recommends that you create a CSV file
template.
■ The account-information fields in a CSV file are not case-sensitive. Thus, you
can type values in either uppercase or lowercase letters, or a combination of
both. However, the values that appear in the user's profile on your site—such as
the user's name—will appear as you type them in the CSV file. Also users must
type their default passwords exactly as you specify them in the CSV file to log in
to their accounts.
■ Refer to Account-Information Fields below for the correct format for user
account information.
■ Once you finish specifying user account information, ensure that you save the
spreadsheet file as a CSV file.
■ If you specify any information for a user account incorrectly, Site
Administration cannot create that account. In this case, Site Administration
generates a list of records for the accounts that it was unable to create, including
the cause for each error. You can download a file containing these records to
your computer for reference or to correct the errors directly in that file.
■ If, after uploading a CSV file, you want to change information that you specified
for one or more user accounts, you can edit accounts individually using Site
Administration>Edit User List. Or, you can contact your WebEx account
manager for assistance.

Creating a CSV File Template


1 On the navigation bar, under Manage Users, click Import/Export Users.

2 On the Batch Import/Export Users page, click Export. A message will display
staying that your request is received. You will receive an email notification when
the export process is complete.
3 Using the link in the email notification, open the file containing the data that
you exported in a spreadsheet program, such as Excel.
4 If you want to only add new user accounts, delete any account data that the
exported file contains. Deleting this data does not affect any existing accounts
when you upload the CSV file to Site Administration.

Account-Information Fields

Field Description

UserID Indicates an identification number that WebEx database for Site


Administration automatically generates for the account.
Important
■ If you are adding a new account, do not provide any
information in this column. Site Administration generates this
number after you upload the CSV file. Site Administration
requires that this field be empty to create a new account.
■ If you are editing an existing account, do not delete or modify
this number. If you modify the number for an existing account,
Site Administration creates a new user account, using the
account data in that row. However, if required account data—
such as a user name or email address—already exists for an
account on your site, Site Administration cannot create the
new account.
Active Required. Specifies whether a user account is active or
inactive—that is, whether the user can host WebEx meetings,
training sessions, support sessions, or events, depending on
your site type. This field can contain one of the following values:

Field Description

Password Required. Specifies the password for the account. Passwords:


■ Must contain at least four characters

■ Can consist of a maximum of 32 characters

■ Are case-sensitive—that is, users must type their passwords


exactly as you specify them in this field
■ Can be “****”, which indicates to the Site Administrator not to
change the password for an existing account.
■ Create a new, random password for a new account. In this
case, if you are using the option “Require Strict Password...”,
then the new password does not meet the password criteria,
and the user is required to change the password the first time
the user logs in.
Important If, on the Site Settings for Common page, you
selected the Require strict password for new user accounts
option, and you are using a CSV file to create new user
accounts, you must specify a default password for each account
that complies with the strict password criteria you specified.
Imported passwords in a CSV file can be changed, if proper
password criteria is set in Site Security options.

CSV File Format for Contacts


The following figure is an example of a comma-separated values (CSV) file that was
formatted in Microsoft Excel. You must create your own, company-specific CSV
file template.

Notes and Considerations


■ Before your import contact data in a CSV file, create a backup file of your
contacts data, if any, by exporting the data.
■ All exports (report, user, contacts) are exported in Unicode tab-delimited text
(UTF-16LE) format. All imports support CSV (for English data only) and
Unicode tab delimited text (for non-English data and mixed language data.)
■ A CSV file must include column headings at the top of the file. When creating a
CSV file using a spreadsheet program, such as Microsoft Excel, ensure that the
column headings are in the first row of a spreadsheet. Column headings must
appear exactly as specified under Contact-Information Fields below.
■ Some contact information is required, as specified under Contact-Information
Fields below. Thus, you must include all column headings for required fields.
You need not include column headings for optional fields for which you do not
provide contact information.
■ To ensure that your CSV file contains all required column headings, in their
proper format, WebEx strongly recommends that you create a CSV file
template.
■ The contact-information fields in a CSV file are not case-sensitive. Thus, you can
type values in either uppercase or lowercase letters, or a combination of both.
However, the values that appear in the contact's information on your site-such
as the contact's name-will appear as you type them in the CSV file.
■ Refer to Contact-Information Fields below for the correct format for contact
information.
■ Once you finish specifying contact information, ensure that you save the

213
Chapter 16: CSV File Format Reference

spreadsheet file as a CSV file.


■ When uploading a CSV file, Site Administration displays a table containing the
information that you specified in the file. Please review all information carefully,
and verify its accuracy before you confirm that you want to upload the file.
■ If you specify any information for a contact incorrectly, Site Administration
cannot create that contact. In this case, Site Administration generates a list of
records for the contacts that it was unable to create, including the cause for each
error. You can download a file containing these records to your computer for
reference or to correct the errors directly in that file.
■ If you correct the errors directly in the file that Site Administration creates for
you, ensure that you delete the last column, labeled Comments, before you
upload the file to create the remaining contacts.
■ If, after uploading a CSV file, you want to change information that you specified
for one or more contacts, you can edit contacts individually using Site
Administration. Or, you can contact your WebEx account manager for
assistance.

Creating a CSV File Template


1 If no contacts currently exist on your site, manually add a least one contact to
your site.
2 On the navigation bar, under Manage Site, click Company Addresses.

3 On the Company Address Book page, click Export.

4 Open the file containing the data that you exported in a spreadsheet program,
such as Excel.
5 If you want to only add new contacts, delete any contact data that the exported
file contains. Deleting this data does not affect any contacts when you upload the
CSV file to Site Administration.

214
Chapter 16: CSV File Format Reference

Contact-Information Fields

Use this option... To...

UUID Indicates an identification number that Site Administration


automatically generates for the contact.
Important
■ If you are adding a new contact, do not provide any information
in this column. Site Administration generates this number once
you upload the CSV file. Site Administration requires this field to
be empty to create a new contact.
■ If you are editing an existing contact, do not modify this number.
If you modify the number for an existing contact, Site
Administration creates a new contact, using the data in that row.
However, if required contact data—such as an email address—
already exists for a contact on your site, Site Administration
cannot create the new contact.
DUID Indicates an identification number that Site Administration
automatically generates for Distributor Members.
Name Required. Specifies the contact's first and last name.
Email Required. Specifies the contact's email address.
Company Optional. Specifies the organization for which the contact works.
JobTitle Optional. Specifies the contact's job title or position in an
organization.

her organization.
OffCntry Optional. Specifies the number that you must dial to call a contact
who resides in another country. This field must contain only
numbers.

contain only numbers. Do not include punctuation, such as dashes
or periods.
CellCntry Optional. Specifies the number that you must dial to call a contact
who resides in another country. This field must contain only
numbers.
CellLocal Optional. Specifies the contact's mobile phone number. This field
must contain only numbers. Do not include punctuation, such as
dashes or periods.
FaxCntry Optional. Specifies the number that you must dial to call a fax
machine that resides in another country. This field must contain
only numbers.
FaxLocal Optional. Specifies the contact's fax number. This field must
contain only numbers. Do not include punctuation, such as dashes
or periods.

you can include the contact's user name in this field. User names
■ Cannot include spaces or punctuation marks, except
underscores, hyphens, and periods
■ Can consist of a maximum of 64 characters

Notes Optional. Specifies any additional information about the contact.

CSV File Format for Tracking Code Values


The following figure is an example of a comma-separated values (CSV) file that was
formatted in Microsoft Excel. You must create your own, company-specific CSV
file template.

Notes and Considerations


■ A CSV file must include column headings at the top of the file. When creating a
CSV file using a spreadsheet program, such as Microsoft Excel, ensure that the
column headings are in the first row of a spreadsheet. Column headings must
appear exactly as specified under Code-Value Information Fields below.
■ Some tracking code information is required, as specified under Code-Value
Information Fields below. However, must include all column headings,
regardless of whether their information is optional, and format them exactly as
specified.
■ The code-value information fields in a CSV file are not case-sensitive. Thus, you
can type values in either upper- or lowercase letters, or a combination of both.
However, the values that appear in the list of values for a tracking code on your
site will appear as you type them in the CSV file.
■ Once you finish specifying code values, ensure that you save the spreadsheet file
as a CSV file, which as a .csv extension.
■ When uploading a CSV file, Site Administration displays a table containing the
information that you specified in the file. Please review all information carefully,
and verify its accuracy before you confirm that you want to upload the file.
■ If you specify any code values incorrectly, Site Administration cannot add those

216
Chapter 16: CSV File Format Reference

values to the list. In this case, Site Administration generates a list of records for
the values that it was unable to add, including the cause for each error. You can
download a file containing these records to your computer for reference or to
correct the errors directly in that file.
■ If you correct the errors directly in the file that Site Administration creates for
you, ensure that you delete the last column, labeled Comments, before you
upload the file to create the remaining code values.
■ If, after uploading a CSV file, you want to change information that you specified
for one or more code values, you can edit values individually on the Tracking
Codes List page. Or, you can contact your WebEx account manager for
assistance.

Code-Value Information Fields

Use this option... To...

Index Optional. Specifies the database ID of the tracking code value. An


Index value must be a unique number from 1-500, inclusive. To
prevent errors that duplicate index numbers can cause, you can
leave this column blank. If the Index column does not contain values,
Site Administration inserts the code values sequentially on the
Tracking Codes List page.
Active Optional. Specifies the status of the tracking code value. A value
must be Yes or No. If you leave this value blank, the status
automatically defaults to Yes.
Code Required. Specifies the value of the tracking code. A value can be up
to 128 characters, and include letters, numbers, and special
characters.

Time Zones
Time zones are displayed in an easy to read format. The menu items display
differently depending on whether or not the time zones are in DST (Daylight
Savings Time). The time zone menu format uses this format:
Location (<Time zone name> <DST label> “Time”, <GMT offset>)
An example of the time zone format as it displays is:
San Francisco (Pacific Standard Time), GMT-08:00
